Yoshimi Arts is pleased to announce Yugo Kohrogi's solo exhibition, "Yugo Kohrogi - His Footprints".

He first participated in our featured exhibition, the group exhibition, "Physical side Ⅱ" in 2012, and, since then, has held a solo exhibition five times at Yoshimi Arts, including "/" in 2014. Kohrogi was also selected for the group show, "The Vision of Contemporary Art 2023", held at The Ueno Royal Museum from March 16 to 30, where he will present his new works of art.

Our exhibition will trace his footsteps from 2008 to 2018. We are looking forward to your visit for this special opportunity.
